The Last Retirement Date shows the date on which the last retirement posting occurred for this fixed asset, either partially or completely, due to a sale, a scrapping or a complete transfer, and can be checked in Master Data tab --> Life Cycle Data subtab of the referred asset.

The transfer can only be posted after 12.11.2022.
